    What makes Chris Hemsworth so perfect as Thor is his seamless ability to go back and forth between being very funny and heartbreaking, which was especially the case in the Kenneth Branagh movie and Endgame.

    To think that Tom Hiddleston tried out as Thor made me chuckle. I think that Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston were nobodies when the MCU was looking for Loki and Thor and they hired the two most perfect men. I find them both extremely attractive and they are both amazing at what they do! The god of mischief and the god of thunder I can watch til the day I die! I hope that Chris Hemsworth plays Thor till the wheels fall off.

    No "Star Trek"? The opening of "Star Trek" is something I can watch over and over.

    Everyday I think about how good the Ghostbusters movie was and how we were just absolutely robbed of a sequel

    Ghostbusters was basically the biggest insult you could put on your cv.

    The fact that people say they cant hear the optimus prime in this man’s voice is honestly insane.

    Iconic. Now thats a word thrown out pretty easily nowdays. Marlon Brando in Godfather now thats Iconic. Samuel L. Jackson has some iconic characters. I dunno but im on the fence when it comes to Hemsworth characters. Thor maybe but that has to be it.

    While love and thunder was absolute garbage he will forever be Thor and I look forward to continue seeing him again in the role. Having said that, seeing him in other roles is equally fun, hes a very likable actor. Would recommend watching him in Limitless as well, very interesting documentary
